Dallas City Council Members Wednesday unanimously supported Mayor Eric Johnson’s resolution severing future ties with Russia for invading Ukraine. It will dissolve a long sister city relationship with Saratov, Russia.
He brought images of Fort Worth Pianist Van Cliburn’s 1958 visit to Russia for a piano competition during the Cold War era.Cliburn returned to a ticker-tape parade in the US.Continued peaceful relations can help bridge great divides, Capua said. But his appeal was not successful at this time of war.“Extraordinary times call for extraordinary actions and I think we are living through one of those extraordinary times.
There is a real-life or death situation going on in Europe right now. We have people who are fighting for their freedom over there and this is a fight that is a defining one for this century that we find ourselves living in,” Johnson said.Chief Financial Officer Elizabeth Reich said Johnson’s resolution would apply to future business relationships with Russia or Russian entities.
